Memory - Let's Simplify

Three things help in better memory:

1. Attention - Are you mindful during reading and listening? If not then it's likely that you may not remember the details. For example, if you are talking while driving then you are likely to miss a turn. Consciousness is where the awareness is. 

2. Association - Neurons work on associations. the stronger (and weird) associations we can form the better will be our recall for that data.

3. Sleep - Having 7-8 hours of sleep is essential for goog health and memory.

I think this pretty much sums it up. 

PS: People complain that they cannot remember names. Imagine, if I asked you to remember someone's name and gave you $ 1 million each time I asked you and you gave me the right answer. Will you ever forget it?
